Hey, when you’ve only got six wins all year, you gotta try new shit to get people to come and watch your games.
With just six victories this season, the Nets are threatening to compile the worst record in N.B.A. history. But Nets executives are still trying to persuade fans to attend the team’s last 12 home games.
Their latest promotion will be unveiled Friday, when the Nets play the Orlando Magic. New Jersey residents 18 or older who attend the game will get a coupon that they can redeem at a Roni Deutch Tax Center to get their state income tax done free.
Um, yeah, no thanks on that. I don’t know anything about Roni Deutsch Tax Center, but if it’s anything like H&R Block, I’d stay as far away as possible. Once – just once - I had my taxes done by H&R Block, and the result was a total fucking disaster. I was a student, so you’d think that my taxes would be easy to do, but apparently not. All that happens at these tax centers is someone far less-educated than yourself asks you for information and puts it into a computer why you look over their shoulder and point out that they’re spelled your last name wrong for the fourth fucking time.
Having to watch the Nets is torture enough; don’t fuck with people’s tax returns, too. Besides, going to a Nets game should be written off as a charity.
